I\u2019m a well-prepared person and when I travel with the whole family I pack our luggage consciously, unlike when I travel alone or as a couple, when I wait until the last minute to pack my suitcase.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m taking the experience of our latest trip with our daughters to the Maldives as an opportunity to share with you how I go about organising flights with little ones<\/strong> and prevent them from becoming something tedious.<\/p>\n

– I prepare a travel medical kit with generic and homeopathic medicines, especially if I am travelling to a place where it might be hard to get these.<\/p>\n

– I take healthy snacks for the whole family in my hand luggage, as we don\u2019t always like the plane food. We also try to stay well-hydrated during the flight.<\/p>\n

– At take-off and landing, to avoid ear pain due to the change in air pressure, I make sure Maria, my youngest, has her soother, and that Manuela sucks a sweet or drinks water to keep producing and swallowing saliva and help them to avoid feeling unwell, which is a sensation they\u2019re not used to having to deal with.<\/p>\n

– To make sure they don\u2019t get cold, I tend to take an extra sweater and a silk scarf for their necks, as well as socks so that they can walk around comfortably. I also always take at least one entire change of clothes for each of them, because with children you never know what can happen.<\/p>\n

– On flights, everything goes, and to keep them entertained, I set aside the rules, I welcome all electronic devices applying the philosophy of \u201clet\u2019s have a good time\u201d because there\u2019s no way out! ? I download education applications onto the tablet, as well as their favourite films and cartoons: Wall-e, Peppa Pig, Tarta de Fresa, Vaiana\u2026 Of course I also add notebooks and pencils and a small set of lego which entertain them a lot. As you can see, I take a full mobile entertainment kit.<\/p>\n

I hope that these tips help you if you\u2019re planning on travelling with kids<\/strong> over the holiday period.<\/p>\n

Happy Christmas,
\nV.<\/p>\n
